We do not want to return error here, because it will abort probe, and then
we will not be able to initiate firmware flash flow so we can attempt to
recover the device.

If you want to try you can change the ts->iap_mode before trying to register
input device, but then you need to be very careful about registering and
unregistering it later, after flashing or re-flashing firmware.
